I love the concept of the ShopSmith, however I can NOT get over the idea of a tilting table instead of a tilting arbor. And all of the added bits and pieces such as the bandsaw, jointer, etc... are pretty small... I think with a bit more engineering to it. the SS could have evolved into a much more capable machine. Pretty darn capable as it is, and certainly for super constrained space wise shops absolutely unbeatable!Please like and subscribe to my YouTube channel.

And here we go again ... I don't know of any company that has died and been resurrected more times than ShopSmith. The link below gives a few details.
